  • High fashion to music.....there is no style like Jones style!!

  • The song was released on a maxi single (long version 7:34 and dub version 4:15) in 1983. It is not included on the "Living My Life" album. In France, the video is available in a 3 DVD box set of the 80's TV show "Sex Machine". The box set was released in November 2011, you can find it on amazon . fr under the name "Sex Machine".

  • On which album was this one? I thought it was on 'Living my Life' and when I bought it it wasn't on the album! Love the video!

  • Ah, from the days of Jean Paul Goude ... as fantastic as she is, her videos haven't quite been the same.

  • this is quite a different vocal version to the release on 'the collection'

  • Great! I have been looking for this!

  • She's so beautiful in this vid, and JPGoude's visual interpretations are fantastic - you gotta love Ms Grace Jones x

  • I remember when I first saw this video in the 80s, I didn't like the masks the dancers wore, i found it insulting. Now when I see it, it's perfect, it expresses for me the treatment black women get and how we are seen, even by other black people.

    Yoko Ono and John Lennon had "Women are the niggers of the world", being a black woman is a mother fucker!.

  • A masteroiece. I had the one woman show video, and this was on it. It can be found on the 2004 collection, and Private life...the compass years. I love her aggression, another good example is "Kicked around"

  • I like the aggression too! She's always been that persona I wished I could be. Strong, take no B.S. from anybody, live life on your own terms without blinking; that is VERY rare nowadays, with the gansta rap bullshit!

  • sorry i do not know what happened!

  • I used to have the VHS video of her whole album, but alas......

    Glad to find this version once more

  • this is funny.

  • When black MF's in American wasn't reppin' women that looked like her, she was DEFINITELY speaking to me. Her, Naomi and Iman changed my life!

  • For me I would say Grace, Sade, Susan Taylor (Essence mag), the movie "Diva". Diva was the first time I saw a black woman celebrated and unfortunately not too many others since then.

  • ... BEST VIDEO AND SONG FROM GRACE... EVER!!!

  • This was one of the first music videos I ever saw..... still kind of creeps me out today

  • I love this , I wonder what album this song is on.

  • "Private Life: The Compass Point Sessions"

    I bought in the 90s as a import, i don't know if it's still in print.

  • i dont like it -.-

  • Is this version available? The single version is okay but this version is awesome!!! YOU CAN'T STAND MEEEEEEEEEE!!!

    love it.

  • @blahdavid "you can't stop me ..."

    yes, love the dramah

    but seriously feels like one of her most honest & direct vocal achievements

  • There's a lot to choose from, but this is one of her most memorable videos. Needless to say this is a Jean Paul Goude/Grace Jones collaboration - they were a fantastic team. 

  • Thank you for putting this back up. Someone had posted it and removed it.
